1
When you are younger, you think you're gonna have power forever.
2
You think you are unbreakable.
3
But in football, the demands physically, it's a lot.
4
So you have to manage that.
5
You have to be smart.
6
If you're training two hours, you have to recover two hours.
7
The most important thing is to have a routine.
8
I know if I sleep good, if my recovery is good or not.
9
But of course, with the Whoop, you are 100% sure.
10
Our newest launch, it's our Whoop medical grade product.
11
This is amazing.
12
In my opinion, it's one of the best devices ever in terms of healthspan for your body, for your mental strength.
13
It's worth it.
14
Make effort in your health.
15
If you want to achieve success, it's the only way.
16
Great to be with you, brother.
17
Thank you.
18
Thank you.
19
So this is an exciting moment for us because today we're going to reveal to you the Whoop MG,
20
which is a technology I've been building for 13 years.
21
Wow but is our newest launch it's our whoop medical grade product top it's about uh seven percent smaller
22
and it also has a 14 day battery life wow three
23
times the battery life we're coming out with a feature called health span
24
which is going to tell you your whoop age whoop did
25
all this work to essentially assess based on your behaviors your
26
performance your physiology what is your actual physiological age versus your
27
biological age i'll let you reveal it yeah i touch here yeah what does it say i don't believe it's
28
so good 28.9
29
so it says you're 28.9 yes that's amazing 12 years younger
30
your hoop age is lower than your chronologic age slowing excellent elf continue your health behaviors
31
so this is mean
32
that i'm going to play 10 years more football we'll go through the different behaviors within your whoop edge
33
so here you can scroll
34
if you scroll up you can see each of the different statistics
35
and how those are affecting your whoop edge
36
so we'll start talking about them now
37
because i really want to get into some of your habits that drive your whoop age.
38
So let's start with your steps.
39
Your steps are making you almost a year younger.
40
Okay.
41
So you're getting on average 17,000 steps a day.
42
Does that sound consistent with your behavior and your training?
43
It's the way I live my life.
44
You know, I'm always move,
45
not only for football, but my daily life to spend time with my kids to play with them. To have another activity.
46
Aside of football.
47
Yeah.
48
So make me move a lot.
49
Don't surprise me because I'm I move a lot too.
50
And your hours of sleep, you've got 70 percent sleep consistency, which is pretty much the recommended level.
51
you're getting seven hours and 15 minutes of sleep.
52
Talk a little bit about your sleep routine.
53
For me, probably sleep is the most important tool that I have
54
because it's the only moment at the day that you can recover and settle everything.
55
So for me, a great night of sleep, it's the most important thing
56
that probably we have in a life in terms of health spend to be consistent in the time
57
that i go to the beds and the time
58
that i wake up right i mean like example i go bed around 11 12 11 12 there
59
and wake up 8 30 8 30 8 45 it's my routine i don't like
60
when is when we travel or when we We have games at the night, so the body is like shaking a lot at the night.
61
So the quality of sleeping is not the same.
62
But you have to balance that to don't make too much difference in my sleeping time.
63
For example, now I try to do it the same, but maybe I'll go one hour late to the bed and I wake up one hour late as well.
64
So I think the balance is not too different.
65
For example, for you coming from US, the time zone is completely different.
66
You are here in Saudi.
67
For you it's more difficult, you know.
68
But I think it's the most important thing.
69
It's the consistency.
70
If your consistency is good, nothing gonna have big influence in your health, in my opinion.
71
and when you travel internationally
72
or you go over you know five six eight hours of
73
a different time zone what do you like to do to usually i'm not do
74
that yeah but
75
if i have to do it it's a small amount of time i'm not gonna spend for example in u.s
76
or big tours what that we do in the pre-season in China or Japan, whatever.
77
It's the way that you can adjust, you know, but when I'm traveling, I do it a long journeys.
78
I've never been there more than four or five days.
79
So for me, it's not a big deal.
80
I have an opportunity to be and work in the zone that I feel comfortable.
81
But if that happens, I know the way to don't shake too much the body.
82
christiano age 40 versus age 25 did you know that sleep was
83
that important when you were younger so you've always been
84
when you are younger you think you can you're gonna live
85
forever you're gonna have power forever you think you are um unbreakable
86
but by the age and i have a great example in the football because it's the football it's the demands
87
physically and body it's a lot so you have to manage
88
that you have to be smart and do things in a different way
89
so I learn with the time I learn with my experience
90
and I adjust year by year the demand of the body to answer your question
91
when you have 25 is not the same when you have 30 especially in football
92
or ice sports but i'm still feeling good uh
93
and i prioritize recovery
94
and the sleeping what have you noticed from using whoop to improve your recovery as i told you not just
95
because we are a partner of this great company
96
and great tool in my opinion it's like a doctor you
97
have your wrist yeah um that's around your wrist yes yeah
98
and for me it's amazing because you can control a little bit better
99
but sometimes it's funny because the people that surround me all the time
100
and uh physios
101
and our physiology they say i know i don't need sometimes
102
to look the the hoop to know how i feel yeah
103
because it's many years of experience many years of of plain eye level.
104
I know how I feel, if I sleep good, if my recovery is good or not.
105
And for me, it's very helpful that I have this device and the new one in my.
106
The new one looks good too.
107
You have a few behaviors that seem to really improve your recovery.
108
You track these in the Whoop journal.
109
So compression therapy, when you log doing that, it actually has up to an 11% increase in your recovery.
110
What do you do with compression therapy?
111
I think it's another tool that can help in my recover.
112
If you have, and you saw, because you've been in my house two times,
113
and you saw that I take care of a lot of my recovery because I think the way you're training, if you're training two hours, you have to recover two hours.
114
If you're training three hours, you have to recover three hours.
115
I have a company that we have a few tools as well, recovery tools, that help me a lot not only that way
116
but we have cryo sport for example that they pressure your muscles
117
and in the same time make you joints and muscles cold
118
and helps a lot i felt
119
that it's a great tool to recover i have many tools
120
that help me to be in a good recover every day
121
to be in the top level cryotherapy increases your recovery by seven percent cold shower increases it by four
122
and a half percent so clearly doing cold therapy is helpful for you it's a great tool
123
that people should understand that many people in the world they have misunderstanding
124
that cold is not good if you take cold showers of
125
if you do it ice bath that you're going to be with a fever
126
which is completely wrong it's the opposite more often you do that less sick you will be totally So,
127
but I understand that people have this misunderstanding because even my wife and my kids,
128
that when the kids go around the house without shoes, be careful, they're going to be sick.
129
No, it's not.
130
It's the opposite.
131
But I understand step by step with a good example.
132
I think people start to change the mentality that cold is a great tool.
133
So back to you being 28 years old on WHOOP, your resting heart rate is 44 beats per minute.
134
And in fact, in the last 30 days, it's been closer to 40.
135
So this is giving you essentially two years reduction in your age.
136
I'm curious, are there things that you find that help you calm your nervous system or lower your heart rate?
137
Yes.
138
It's another way of recovery.
139
And especially it's curious that I say to my teammates yesterday that I feel in peace when I arrive at home.
140
Every time.
141
When I go away of home, I don't gonna say that I feel nervous because not.
142
But I feel that my low stress is not the same.
143
Not I or down, but it's average.
144
But when I arrive at home, my day is completely different.
145
My heart is different.
146
And apart of that, I am with the people who I like it,
147
and then I can recover and be in my world with peace to do with my sauna alone,
148
my cold therapy, my machines, to be with the family.
149
I think it's moments that make my stress very low.
150
And I think part of that is the heart.
151
They show that I'm completely low stress.
152
That means a lot because it means that you make your body and your mind calm.
153
I think it helps to the heart a lot.
154
Obviously, exercise is a big part of your life.
155
You spend close to 10 hours a week training and then an additional,
156
and that's in heart rate zones one to three.
157
And then in four to five, you're spending another hour.
158
So all of this from a WHOOP age standpoint is bringing your age down.
159
How do you balance sort of cardio training or sprint training with endurance training?
160
Part of that, it's my routine relit with football, of course.
161
But apart of that, I have hobbies.
162
As I mentioned before, you have to manage and to find the balance to don't overstress your body too.
163
Because too much sport is not good too.
164
So you have to find the balance for that.
165
and I think I have because
166
one of the things
167
that the people don't take too much attention it's your mental cognition it's very important in my opinion
168
and if you do it your job
169
and at the same time you enjoy to do it other
170
sports with your friends socialize I think it's a good part to make your balance right so
171
I try to find with my experience
172
to don't push too much my body when they need to recover
173
but to find the balance
174
which is sometimes is difficult i take care of my body
175
since i started to play football now you can tell me
176
that you treat the same way that you treat 20 years ago no
177
but i was there like take care a little bit of my body
178
but by the time by the age i increase a little bit more
179
because we are get we all of us get old, but I start every year, do something more, something more, something more.
180
So one other aspect of health span is that we have what's called pace of aging.
181
So what this shows you is at any given period, um, how much younger or for some people older are you trending now for you,
182
you're always pretty much below the trend line.
183
So you're pretty much always getting younger according to whoop.
184
But what's interesting is it went really low in January and February of this year.
185
Is there anything you can think of about your January and February that was more restorative or even healthier?
186
Probably it's the moment that we have probably more vacation.
187
A little more rest.
188
I don't have a specific thing to tell you.
189
So this is coincidence, in my opinion, because the way I live my life, it's always very similar.
190
Well, we have a big theme with this new technology launch, which is people can now take control of their health, right?
191
There's so much broken about the health system.
192
And now people can have data themselves to take control.
193
And in some ways, that's a wake-up call, right?
194
What for you in your life was a wake-up call where you said, you know, I have this opportunity to be great?
195
The moment, it's difficult to tell you.
196
But I think the wake-up call is important, but it's not the key.
197
I think you have to take care a little bit of your body, but without obsession.
198
If you start today, you're going to have benefits in the future.
199
It doesn't matter the time.
200
What is important?
201
It's what you want to achieve.
202
Yeah.
203
What you want.
204
You want to live a good life?
205
Yes.
206
I like to drink.
207
I like to eat a burger.
208
Okay.
209
You're going to pay the bill in the future.
210
Right.
211
I think the most important is to find the balance.
212
Sometimes I can eat a burger or chips.
213
It doesn't matter.
214
It's important too for your mind too.
215
Sometimes I sleep two o'clock in the morning because last night I was in UFC
216
here in South and they might event it's two o'clock.
217
Yes.
218
It's quality of life too.
219
But the most important thing, it's the consistency.
220
If you have consistency, you're going to be good in the future
221
or you're going to be better than other ones in the future.
222
This is my opinion.
223
I think, and tell me what you think, that the consistency and the discipline is what takes someone who's high talent
224
and makes them truly great what do you think any sports
225
yeah any job i think it's part of the life it's like that
226
it's only the opposite they are not part of this world in my opinion
227
if you want to achieve successful it's the only way you've
228
probably seen a lot of footballers athletes i see everything talent
229
everything everything everything not only sports any any job any job is the same way the same
230
if you are not consistent more than other ones
231
if you don't do it add something more than other ones
232
you're never going to be number one like me i'm joking so you're never going to be
233
you're never going to be an eye level so many years it can be one two years okay 20 years, 13 years is impossible.
234
Forget it.
235
If someone tells you the opposite, in my opinion, they lie.
236
And if someone is having trouble with consistency or discipline, what do you think are techniques or what kind of encouragement would you give them?
237
Do they need a stronger goal?
238
Do they need a vision for what they can become?
239
Yesterday I see one thing that makes me wake up call like sometimes we give
240
so much energy for situations who don't go well in your life
241
but you just stop when you have a problem healthy problem
242
and your priority it's the the cure to resolve the the sickness
243
that your problem the other things is not important yeah
244
and you make we make everything in the same package to solve
245
so many problems what sometimes is this is not a problem this is situations of the life the daily things
246
and we focus so many things and we forgot to focus the main thing
247
and i give you the bad example is like
248
when you are sick you only focus the cure of this problem you can have a hundred problems
249
but if you have a health problem you have one problem exactly exactly
250
so this is what I want to say with that.
251
Focus on your priorities.
252
You understand?
253
Don't focus so many things.
254
And this is what I learned by the time.
255
And I'm going well with my life.
256
To be honest, I mean, enjoy so much, so much more than before that you start to see the life in a different way.
257
You know, and people they will find out better.
258
soon than late, you know, to try to, to make the life more interesting.
259
Being fit is hard.
260
You know, the discipline that you do takes so much work, but also being out of shape and being sick is hard. Of course.
261
And so there's a concept of like, choose your heart.
262
Right.
263
But everything is hard.
264
Yeah.
265
The, the, the both ways is hard.
266
Right.
267
Yeah.
268
So, so why without obsession?
269
I'm gonna mention you say to be like me maybe in your opinion the period
270
or the opinion of the old people even my friends say
271
that I'm I'm sick to live
272
that life for me it's not a big deal I do
273
it in a comfortable way in a happy way for me
274
is it not sacrifice you say yeah sometimes you don't want
275
to go to the gym of course no sometimes I don't go to do like
276
but I go because I have a a compromise with myself, but I'm not so happy every day.
277
You think I'm wake up off the bed every day, happy or with my wife or with my kids.
278
Sometimes I'm not, but it's part of the overt.
279
We are both the same.
280
We feel this every time.
281
To mention again, the most important thing is to have a routine, consistent, not obsession.
282
Good.
283
Don't be like Cristiano because Cristiano is crazy.
284
Okay.
285
But 20%, 25% is so much.
286
Yeah, be more consistent.
287
Yeah, it's a little bit.
288
Come on, make effort in your health.
289
It makes sense.
290
Well, look, all of us at Whoop are inspired by you, and I think you have an incredibly important message, not just for the world's best athletes,
291
but for the masses, which is be more consistent in your life, take control of your life, and prioritize your health.
292
It's not a big deal, in my opinion.
293
It's quality of life for your body, for your mental strength, and it's worth it.
294
Well, this has been a pleasure as always.
295
And we're honored that you use Whoop as part of this routine.
296
I use it every day, every single day.
297
And as I told you before, it's a good tool to help your health.
298
And congratulations for your company.
299
for that because helps me even more.
300
But the society as well want to enjoy this world of to take care of itself.
301
I think it's a great tool to start it.
302
The wake-up call.
303
Thank you, brother.
304
Thank you.

Cosa imparerai
Questo video ti aiuterà a migliorare due abilità cruciali per la conversazione in inglese: la comprensione di dialoghi informali (tra Ronaldo e l'intervistatore) e l'uso di espressioni colloquiali come "it's the way I live my life" o "don't surprise me". Inoltre, imparerai a seguire un discorso che combina argomenti tecnici (il dispositivo di salute) con aneddoti personali, una situazione comune nella comunicazione quotidiana.
Ascolta questi suoni
Nella conversazione, nota come le parole si collegano: ad esempio, "you're gonna" (da "you are going to") o "it's a lot" (con la "t" soft). C'è anche la riduzione di "I'm" a "'m" in frasi come "I'm always move". Questi collegamenti rendono il discorso più fluido e sono tipici del inglese parlato. Pratica a ripetere queste combinazioni per non perdere il filo durante una conversazione.
Parla come un madrelingua
Per imitare il ritmo e l'enfasi del parlante, focalizzati su due punti: la stressazione delle parole chiave (es. "routine", "recupero", "salute") e la pausa tra le frasi. Ronaldo usa una voce calma ma decisa, con pause brevi dopo frasi come "Make effort in your health" per dare importanza all'idea. Usa il metodo del shadowing in inglese: ascolta una frase, ferma il video e ripeterla immediatamente, cercando di corrispondere al tono e alla velocità. Un shadowing site o un'app per la pratica di conversazione in inglese può aiutarti a esercitarti regolarmente.
Perché questo video è perfetto per il shadowing?
Contiene frasi concrete e con contesto reale (vita quotidiana, sport, salute), ideali per esercitare la pronuncia e la fluidità. Ogni dettaglio, come i 17.000 passi al giorno o la consistenza del sonno, è una opportunità per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e imparare a esprimere concetti pratici. Il shadowspeak (la tecnica di ripetizione immediata) diventa semplice qui perché il discorso è chiaro e non troppo veloce.
- Ripeti frasi come "If you want to achieve success, it's the only way" per lavorare la connessione tra "want to" e "it's".
- Focus sulla parola "healthspan": nota come la "th" è pronunciata con la lingua tra i denti.
- Imita la risposta di Ronaldo: "It's the way I live my life" con l'enfasi su "way" e "live".
Con la pratica regolare, noterai che la tua confidenza nella conversazione in inglese cresce, e la pronuncia diventa più naturale. Ricorda: il segreto è la costanza, come la routine di Ronaldo per la longevità!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | I've never been · you've always been · have you noticed |
| Frasi relative who / which + frase — un’informazione in più su una persona o una cosa | consistency, which is · people who I · launch, which is |
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
